This is book # 800 I register with Bookcrossing.
A novel of the "Oregon files".
It's always surprising what kind of adventures those two authors manage to come up with. Full of interesting ideas for a twisted plot. But the adventure-writers competition is getting tougher...

This is an international bookRAY.
The following bookcrossers read along:

"bekoh" from Salamander Bay, New South Wales, Australia (worldwide)
"Tinina67" from Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia (worldwide)
"Dancesports" from Petcheys Bay, Tasmania, Australia (worldwide)

"perryfran" from Rockville, Maryland, USA (worldwide)

CONTROLLED RELEASE NOTES:

The book is sailong now halfway around the world to Australia. Enjoy!

This has arrived just in time for my holiday! My husband has bagged it first as he loves Clive Cussler books.

I like reading Cussler - predictable but fun. Hubby liked it - it kept him amused all holidays. Thanks Book-Man! (cool bookmark/postcard thingy too!)

CONTROLLED RELEASE NOTES:

Posted a bit late sorry. I left it in my drawer at work then took a week off work sick. Hope it arrives OK.

Arrived today safe and sound here at the Gold Coast. I have a huge book to read before I get to this one, but I promise to read it asap.
Thanks for including me.

As usual entertaining and good to read. Not sure if I like Juan better than Dirk. ;-)

Will be send to the next bookcrosser asap.

Thanks for including me.

Posted today to Tassie!

Travel safe.

Book arrived safely today.

on it's way to the next reader - via surface mail.

(whoops - forgot to make a journal entry first - I enjoyed the book - I think it is the first I've read by this author but I know there is another in my tbr pile which I am looking forward to reading now)

Received this one in the mail today - it must have been on a slow boat from Australia - it took over 2 months to get here! Anyway, thanks Dancesports for sending it and book-man-8 for another of your Cussler bookrays. I'll try to get to it soon.

Another super entry in the Oregon Files series. I have really enjoyed the last several of these novels about the exploits of the crew of the Oregon. This one takes place less on the sea and has a lot of action in the jungles of Argentina, the Antarctic, and trying to find the secret of a "Treasure Pit" on an island off the coast of Washington. This part of the novel was quite intriguing but it reminded me a lot of another great actioner - Riptide by Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child. Riptide was about another treasure pit or water pit supposedly constructed by pirates to contain hidden treasure. Not sure if Cussler/Du Brul borrowed the idea from this earlier novel. Anyway, "Silent Sea" was a page-turner as usual, and I would highly recommend it.

Thanks again book-man-8 for sharing this one. I will be sending it off to another reader soon.

Sending to another reader in Roswell, Georgia.

Not my favorite Cussler book. Sending to Oklahoma....
